METALPOL is one of the oldest plants in the metallurgical sector in Poland

METALPOL is one of the oldest plants in the metallurgical sector in Poland; steelworks - the predecessor of today's foundry was founded in 1838.

After some time the mill gave place to iron foundry and fittings factory, which, despite the wars, the ups and downs, continually developed and was in the period before and after the war leading manufacturer of fittings in Poland.

In the late 1990s, changes in political and economic system in Poland, became the cause of the difficulty in a factory getting used to new reality. As a consequence, in 2000, the plant became a part of French casting group CF2M and changed its name to METALPOL.

In subsequent years, the factory, using the help and experience of specialists of the French group, has been thoroughly modernized and reconfigured to meet the standards of Western Europe and respond to customer demands.

In 2010 METALPOL, under the management buyout, became back the company with entirely Polish capital.
